Driven by growth of the Latin American population in the U.S., promotion of healthy eating, as well as increasing use of avocados in menus of "healthy fast food" restaurants in large cities, the avocado market performance is set to continue its upwards consumption trend in the medium term.
The U.S. avocado market showed an upward trend of consumption, rising steadily from 2011 to 2016. According to market research conducted by IndexBox, in wholesale prices, the market size doubled over the last five years and finally reached $X in 2016. This figure reflects total revenue of producers and importers (excluding logistics costs, retail marketing costs, and retailers’ margins, which will be included in the final consumer price). However, being calculated at the average retail prices, the market size is estimated near $X, which makes huge contrast against the revenues of producers and importers.
In physical terms, an
X% decrease of consumption volume was observed in 2016 to
X tonnes, but previously the market volume underwent a robust growth from
2011-2015. A sensitive increase in import prices in 2016 could be the reason
for this drop in consumption; it also enabled the market to grow in value terms
against the decline in consumption volume in 2016.
Over the analyzed
period, avocados became increasingly popular in the U.S.: per capita avocado
consumption in U.S. expanded robustly from X kg/year in 2007 to X kg/year
in 2016. In value terms, per capita avocado consumption ranged in the interval
from $X per year in 2008 to $X per year in 2016. Consumption of avocados
in the United States will be affected mostly by sustainable population growth,
especially including the growth of the Latin American population with avocado
being a staple in their cuisine; the use of avocados as an ingredient in the
cosmetic industry is also increasing. Promotion of healthy eating and vegan or vegetarian
diet, along with growth in the number of "healthy fast food"
restaurants in large cities, as well as the growing popularity of avocado
sandwiches will constitute some other factors contributing to the avocado
market growth; moreover, largest fast-food chains are increasingly adding dishes
with avocado to their menus. Thus, based on these factors, market performance
is forecast to continue its upwards consumption trend, expanding with an
anticipated average annual growth rate of +X% for the nine-year period from
2016 to 2025, which is projected to lead the market volume to X tonnes by
the end of 2025.
The U.S. avocado production
recorded wild fluctuations over the period under review. In 2016, the value of
shipments in the industry decreased by X% to $X. Production volume of
avocados also dropped in 2016, amounting to X tonnes. Fluctuations in the
volume of avocado production are primarily due to lean seasons in the two
largest avocado producing states - California and Florida. At the same time,
the harvested area of avocados gradually decreased within the period under
review: the results of 2016 indicated a drop by X% against the level of 2007.
Therefore, the
national production of avocados in the U.S. is unable to meet domestic
consumption due to its insufficient volumes, relative high costs and
significant fluctuations due to lean seasons. As a result, the growing
consumption of avocados in the U.S. has stimulated an increase in imports - the
share of imports in total U.S. avocados consumption increased from X% in 2007
to X% in 2016.
In 2016, the value
of total U.S. avocado imports was $X. There was an annual average increase
of +X% for the period from 2007 to 2016; it accelerated sharply over the
last four years. In physical terms, U.S. avocado imports reached X tonnes in
2016, levelling off against the previous year and thereby finishing a period of
steady growth observed over the previous four years.
Mexico (X tonnes)
was the main supplier of avocado into the U.S., with a share of X% of total
U.S. imports in 2016. Imports from Mexico increased at an average annual rate
of +X% from 2007 to 2016. Therefore, Mexico significantly strengthened its
position in the U.S. imports by +X percentage points from 2007 to 2016. Peru
held the second position in the ranking with X% share of total imports,
followed by Chile (X%) and the Dominican Republic (X%). Mexico significantly strengthened its position in terms of
the U.S. imports from X% in 2007 to X% in 2016, while Chile, which previously boasted a high volume of
imports, saw its share reduced by –X percentage points over the same period.
On the other hand, the U.S. exported X tonnes of avocado in 2016, with Canada constituting the main export destination. The export volumes fluctuated somewhat wildly from 2007-2016, with acceleration over the last year. As the market continues to be dominated by imports, these small exports may include not only domestically produced avocados, but re-exports as well.
Retail prices for
avocado fluctuated mildly over the analyzed period. It dropped from the highest
level achieved in 2011 of $X per unit to $X per unit in 2016. Regionwise,
the highest price in 2016 was recorded in Hawaii (X $ per unit) and the
lowest in the U.S. South Central (X $ per unit).
